#HOW TO INCREASE OFFICER LIMIT IN STAR TREK ARMADA II MANUAL#
I have included the TNG Officer's Manual ships in this section, however, since I consider those few ship designs to be an extension of the original UFP recognition manual. There was an effort to bring the UFP up to date with the introduction of the STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION OFFICERS MANUAL, but as with the older UFP recognition manual, just about every design in the TNG Officer's Manual is apocryphal, having little or no basis in the actual television program. Where are all the rest of the ships? Like all the old FASA manuals, this one was made thoroughly outdated by the TNG universe, as well as movies like Star Trek VI and Star Trek Generations. This to me is not very believable, especially since we've seen Starfleet ship registry numbers in the tens of thousands. Yes, the UFP does have better technology, and yes Starfleet's primary mission is still one of exploration, but the Klingon forces number into the tens of thousands of ships, while if you added up the entire Federation manual you'd get a Starfleet that amasses only a few thousand ships, at the most. Another beef of mine is that the written text describes a total Starfleet that is horribly small compared to, say, the Klingons. But too often the saucer and nacelles are not to scale, and I think it was dumb on the part of the designers to slap an Enterprise saucer and nacelles on a scout or an escort or a destroyer when these ships are clearly much smaller than the heavy cruiser that is the Enterprise. There are destroyers like the Lenthal or the Baker which ought to mass more than the Enterprise cruisers, if the identical saucer and nacelles are supposed to be to scale. Very often it seems the illustrators just photocopied the saucer section and warp nacelles from a refit Constitution class (Enterprise class in the old FASA books) and then slapped a bunch of other hardware around that saucer & nacelles, and called it a ship, regardless of size or mission. Mostly because the scaling seems all wrong to me. Strangely, I don't think the FEDERATION SHIP RECOGNITION MANUAL is as well written as the KLINGON manual, and I also don't think the ship designs are quite as good. Marsh Jane BigosīRAD'S COMMENTS: The United Federation Of Planets and its Starfleet possess the most high-tech and powerful ships among all of the three major 'superpowers' in the old FASA game universe.
